This is the second session of the recent leadership conference ran at Jubilee. There is also a fantastic Q and A session is also available. My notes follow the video: watch on vimeo 2 Tim 2 When Chandler was proposed to the Village as a prospective pastor, he was (and still is) a Charismatic complementarian Calvinist with no college degree. So wasn't expecting to get the job. There's a way that seems right to man that ends in death. He showed them the Bible way, and found that … [Read more...]

May 31, 2010 By Leave a Comment
This is the first session of our recent 300 leaders conference with Matt Chandler. If you enjoy it, I am sure you would also enjoy being with us for Piper in just a few weeks.

May 26, 2010 By Leave a Comment
About ten days ago, Matt Chandler preached the following sermon at Jubilee Church in London. In it he preaches the gospel, focusing in on the parable of the prodigal son from Luke's gospel. Many readers will remember seeing Matt's "Jesus wants the battered rose" illustration. If you want to see that illustration in context this is a good video. It is vital that Christian's expose themselves to clear gospel teaching often. This talk will make fresh for you the wonderful good news of Jesus' … [Read more...]
Top Twenty Five Videos

This weekend I thought I would share a list of my top Twenty Five videos ordered by total number of views. As you can see, one of my Chandler videos has already jumped in above Mark Driscoll in second place. Terry's fantastic sermon on prayer is way ahead of that one even, however. I enjoyed filming or watching all of these videos. Why not watch one or two you have missed? 1 Elijah Prays For Rain Tue Jun 23, 2009 2 Matt Chandler on being a reformed charismatic without much of a … [Read more...]
Jesus is better

When a pastor tells you that a certain passage of Scripture has been one of the most influential on his life, and is among the most precious to him you take notice. When he says that it is a passage he thinks about, or makes reference to almost every week your ears should prick up. When he then spends just a few minutes explaining why that is so it is well worth watching. This excerpt from Jubilee's service last Sunday is Tope Koleoso introducing communion and explaining why only one thing is … [Read more...]
Matt Chandler on why he IS friends with his staff
May 20, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Many people argue that a church pastor should not be friends with his fellow leaders on staff. This is largely because of the risk of being betrayed, as well as the challenge of ensuring your friends are working hard for the church. Chandler disagrees in this final segment of our four-part interview, at least for himself. We also then finished by speaking about his current illness. More video from Chandler is coming (video of his sessions at Jubilee). Watch on Vimeo … [Read more...]

Matt Chandler on being a reformed charismatic
May 18, 2010 By Leave a Comment
This is the second of a four-part interview with Matt Chandler. At Together For the Gospel, Chandler began his talk by claiming to be a reformed charismatic. After Grudem's recent interview on this subject at New Word Alive, I was eager to ask Matt just what he meant by this, as there is a broad spectrum of people who would describe themselves as charismatic. His response including the memorable phrase, "I have never read anything in the Scripture where the devil was in the business of … [Read more...]
